Every Been to a Barbie Barn?


Welcome!  I am delighted to have you drop by my doll world site!  This site is all about my little Barbie Doll world created for children everywhere, those who are still children at heart, and all those who love dolls and miniatures.  This delightful retreat was born as the result of my husband and I desiring to serve those who serve, and their families, most especially our grand-children Gabby and Samantha, who are presently with their family in Germany.  We have not seen them in two years, and this represents a great sacrifice for each of us.  Children of military families have always been required to make sacrifices for our country, but those sacrifices have been very great during the last eleven years.  May we never forget!

 We have found there are two things that are universal as needs for those serving in the military, honorable leadership, and care of the families these brave heroes and heroines leave behind at home while they go to war for our country.  Soldiers will always put their own needs last, but the needs of their families.  We operate a small retreat and bed and breakfast in Austin County, Texas, between Sealy and Bellville, Texas, and located directly under heaven.

There is fishing and canoeing, horses, a petting zoo, a pool and hot tub, little cabins to stay in, a playground with tree houses, gardens, and all kinds of wildlife in the 13 acre woods.
Of course there is the Barbie Barn too!
